can anyone give me any advice on any pitfalls that may come my way this year on holiday when i decide to take to the road early morning from san antonio bay and venture up into the hills for a few hours with my digital SLR camera, various lenses, tripod and a few cool beers to indulge in my photography hobby(and anything to get away from the weans for a few hours)

would i venture onto private ground if i go off the beaten track, what about the roads aswell are they for public use.

i wouldnt want to be irritating land owners and farmers if i mistakenly land on thier patch.

cheers in advance for any info recieved.
